“I found the swimming pool area to be a standout feature, and the food receives high marks. While a bit more warmth from the staff could elevate the experience further, the location is undeniably convenient for those needing a stopover on longer journeys. Despite some reservations based on older feedback, it seems the hotel provides solid value, especially considering the room rates.”
